  2. Men's World Cup 2016

    If Jun participated He would really had a chance at winning (only Xu Xin from CNT). But now it won't be so interesting.
  3. Xushaofa seamless one star?

    The balls are good but there are a lot(I mean - about 70%) balls in the box that are not round (let's say 15% of the box are eggs, 55% are more round eggs, 10% are ok(not perfectly round but ok) and 20% are round). This is their main problem. However the balls are good(the round ones), the...
  4. # 2016 Bulgaria Open (Videos in HD)

    This year the Bulgarian Open was rather weak (because of Rio I think) but there were a lot of interesting matches and interesting players. There was an indian guy who made it to the quarterfinals and lost there to Yuto Kizukuri but how does this guy play! He gets the ball very early and directs...
  5. Omega V Europe

    4 out of 5 rating for Omega V Europe So I've used Xiom Omega 5 Europe in max thickness on a Nittaku Redshank blade. Throw angle: The rubber has a high throw on slow and medium paced shots but on fast strong shots the throw angle lowers. This fact led me to a conclusion that the rubber is good...
  6. Omega V Europe

    Review by 'v100ev' on item 'Omega V Europe'

    So I've used Xiom Omega 5 Europe in max thickness on a Nittaku Redshank blade. Throw angle: The rubber has a high throw on slow and medium paced shots but on fast strong shots the throw angle lowers. This fact led me to a conclusion that the rubber is good for backhand and not so good for...

  9. Rio Olympic 2016 Preparation Tournament - Germany

    I think Vladi was too tired to play good in the finals.. But from the results he is in good form.. I hope he can fight his way to the medals in Rio..
  10. Ask Panagiotis Gionis a question on the TTD podcast!

    A fun fact: in Bulgaria( where I'm from :) ) the pimpled rubbers are called 'teeth'. So we play here not with long pips, but with long teeth. and the question is: Does he think that with the new balls he's counterattacks became easier to handle for the opponents?
  11. Help me find a pimples rubber for my grandad

    I would say that there is an another option - not only short pips: Why won't you give him a soft slow tacky cheap chinese rubber on the backhand? Some friendship or something like that(not a H3 national ;) ). Why? Because the tackiness helps dealing with spin a lot and when the rubber is tacky...
  12. Tearing my hair out with OX rubber

    If you have enough patience you could clear the rubber from the glue but it's not fun at all :) As an OX user I found out that not all water based glues are strong enough for gluing OX pimples. For example Revolution #3 wasn't strong enough for me and the Yasaka Norisuke san worked just fine...
  13. Slovenia Open 2016

    It would be very cool if Joo could win this one too :D
  14. Croatia Open 2016

    Jun Mizutani ..................... 5 . 100.00% :D
  15. Glues

    Revolution #3 is just to weak for me. Not good for OX pips at all. I find Yasaka Norisuke san (who's that?) very good - strong, but not too strong :)
  16. Blade or rubber when trying to get more control on Long Pip chopping?

    It's really hard to answer your questions without seeing.. May be you have some video where your problems can be seen so we could try to help you? I can say only one thing - about the slow and spinny loop. You need quick wrist action when chopping such loop. These are the best loops for a...
  17. Should serve safely or try to serve a surprise to win deuce game?

    As I see it: the point when you are 17:16 up is as crucial as when you are 15:16. And as I understand - you've already played 7 times such points before this moment and took them using one certain tactics. So why change it? I don't see a reason. :)
  18. players who win by "oficio"

    If I understand the question correctly then Samsonov should qualify for an answer :)
  19. Solo Drills

    I'll try to describe my experience in solo drills.. The simplest thing is using a bucket or a cup or something like that placing it somewhere on the opposite side of the table and trying to make a topspin in it (my coach forced me to do for some time :) ). Second is training around the net...
  20. Blade and rubbers from Yasaka

    I would recommend Rakza 7 or 9 for rubbers. 9 is just a little faster with the same topsheet.. The X version is just.. I didn't like it - the topsheet is very soft (not for me). but I know a lot of players that like the X very much.
